In Queensland, speed cameras can catch you from a surprisingly generous distance, generally up to 1.5 kilometres away depending on the type of camera. Fixed speed cameras typically have a range of about 200 to 400 metres, whereas mobile or point-to-point cameras can cover much longer distances by timing your travel between two points. So don’t think you’re safe just because you’re a kilometre or two away—these sneaky machines have a long memory and an even longer reach.
Keep in mind, the exact range varies based on the camera model and location, but if you’re speeding anywhere near these devices, odds are pretty good they’ll catch you before you can say “Oops.” For the nitty-gritty details, checking out official Queensland Transport documentation or ServiceCentral might save you some grief.
